Examine the Verse Mark 1:24This verse is claimed to imply support to
the Trinitarian belief in the the
pre-existence and/or divinity of Jesus Christ.

saying, “Let
us alone!
What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come
to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
(Mark 1:24, New King James Version)

Trinitarian Belief in
God and Jesus Christ:Trinitarians believe in the Trinity, that God is the "Triune God"
existing as
three persons―
God the Father,
God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, but one being.
All three are
eternal
with no beginning.
Members of the Trinity are
co-equal and co-eternal,
one in
essence, nature, power, action, and will.
Trinitarians believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal second person
"God the Son",
who took on a human body and nature and became
both man and God.
Thus is Jesus is fully man
and fully God simultaneously.

Apostle's admonition, warning and
unique way of teaching:1.
No prophecy of scripture is a matter of personal
interpretation. (II Pt. 1:20, NAB)2. Do not go beyond what
is written. (I
Cor. 4:6, NIV)3.
We do not use words of human wisdom. We speak words given to
us by the Spirit,
using the Spirit's words to explain spiritual truths. (1
Cor. 2:13, NLT)

Points to Consider:

1. How can the above verse be
understood to mean that Jesus Christ is God when the verse
did not say that Jesus Christ is the "Holy God"? 2. The verse clearly say
that Jesus is the "Holy One of God"
3. Why is Jesus the
"Holy One of God"? See answer at
John 10:36
4. Is the
verse really about the divinity of Jesus or something else?
